From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 Galeon/1.2.6 (X11; Linux i686; U;) Gecko/20020830 Description of problem: It would be nice to be able to get the kickstart configuration file using either ftp or tftp (in addition to http, nfs, disk and floppy). As one (or both) of these services are needed for an unattended installation, it would lower the requirements. Especially in those cases were you are obliged to have another OS (like OS/2 and Windows) to do the installation from, less requirements will ease such a setup. In the case of tftp, it could even default to the ip-adres that was used to get the pxelinux.0 (bootimage). Especially when ipappend has been specified and this information is available to the install process. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.- 2. 3. Actual Results: - Expected Results: ks=ftp://<ip>/<path>/ks.cfg ks=tftp ks=tftp:/ks.cfg ks=tftp://<ip>/ks.cfg Additional info:
Added ftp to cvs. tftp isn't going to happen due to space constraints.
Mass-closing lots of old bugs which are in MODIFIED (and thus presumed to be fixed). If any of these are still a problem, please reopen or file a new bug against the release which they're occurring in so they can be properly tracked.
